FedEx and Thermal Labels
I've posted this message once before but didn't receive any replies so I
thought I would give it another go.
Is anyone using OFBiz to ship via FedEx. If so, are you using the thermal
labels on an LP2844? I'd really appreciate some input on this if possible.
We need to set it up on our LAN to allow users to print FedEx labels
directly to the shipping department. We have this currently working on a php
product where we actually make use of a UPS Active X control but we are
hoping that this is built into OFBiz somehow.
Thanks in advance.

If you have a the printer attached to a windows box and you install the
driver, you can print it as a PDF.
We put some code into opentaps that allowed to print directly into an
Eltron printer last summer. It was more for proof of concept, but we got
it working enough know it could be done.

No luck as yet. We've got communication with FedEx test servers and we are
able to get a png but not for the thermal. We will probably dedicate someone
to it in the next month and I'll be happy to share if we get a progress.

Hi Scott,
Did you have any luck on below issue, if yes then please so share it.
I am having similar issue, and the fedex support team says if probably
requires some coding to save the commands in a file which is then sent to
the thermal printer.

I have not used it but have configured it.
it does not use any active x components
the code is
org.ofbiz.shipment.thirdparty.fedex;
still todo
* TODO: FDXShipDeleteRequest/Reply (on error and via service call)
* TODO: FDXCloseRequest/Reply
* TODO: FDXRateRequest/Reply
* TODO: FDXTrackRequest/Reply
* TODO: International shipments
* TODO: Multi-piece shipments
* TODO: Freight shipments
this talks directly to fedex so don't need worldship.
you can print the packing image they return for your labels.
